when new people show interest in your interests you're supposed to encourage that, not go "holy larp" and publicly shame them for not already being in the deep end like you are

People always talk about the games that influenced them being the iconic stuff they loved as kid but honestly i feelmlike my gaming tastes/influences have dramatically changed by games that i played/grew to appreciate more in recent years. If in got to make racing game it'd be influenced by this

Of course I specify "grew to appreciate more" because there are games I have known since i was a kid but revisiting them as an adult with a fresh perspective has made me like them a lot more like SMB1 or Sonic 1 which at this point probably inspire more in me than my favorite games as a kid

I wish people would realize that there aren't really any universal truths when it comes to both how pixel art was and is displayed or was and is enjoyed. Different devs did things in different ways because they had different tools or equipment or objectives or techniques.

getting mad at people who think “games are art” because you want some games to be silly and fun too instead of too serious is the same thing as only praising “artistic” games both are treating artsy games as the exception meaning you don’t actually think all games are art puyo puyo tetris 2 is art

what I was talking about in the previous thread kinda ties into what happened with TADC/gooseworx. this growing idea that art should be made for the audience primarily, and that the audience is allowed to dictate who is Eligible to make stuff. bothers me (but similar ides around art always have)
